Another 5 pups came through our gates, today. 4 males & a female. I've called them Florence, Dougal, Bryan, Dylan & Zebedee (Magic Roundabout - Brits of my age will know!). But I'm fast running out of ideas for names.

Single dogs are fairly easy, I wait until a name comes to me that suits them, but twos, threes, fours etc I like to keep within a theme. I've done Harry Potter books, children's tv, Native American tribes, numbers in various languages, alcoholic drinks, alphabetical names, herbs, etc

Has anyone any ideas for new names (within a theme, if possible; it's easier for me to remember)?

If I use your names, I'll let you know.

Thanks

BTW, all available for adoption!!!

How about Bill & Ben, Flower (for the pretty one) and Weed (for the skinny one.)

Takes me back to my childhood watching the TV in the UK.

And of course Andy (Pandy).

The A-team...................

Hannibal

Murdock

Face

And finally, Bosco 'BA' Barracus

My favorites anyway, The dogs will love it!!

Mark

Has anyone any ideas for new names (within a theme, if possible; it's easier for me to remember)?

Starwars series (maybe too off the wall) - our Golden is called Jedi. Cast

Jedi

Skywalker

Darth

Obi-Wan

Luke

Leia

Chewbacca

Han (or Solo)

Thanks! None of those used yet. Great! Keep 'em coming!

Turner,

Plz don't give me a hard time, I know dogs already called this by their owners.

Nienke

Quite like Bucket & Turner as names (I'll just try not to think of the reason), Farma. Nienke - wow, lots to get through!

Friends called their dog "Dee-Oh,-Jee"...

loved the name!

would be easy for Thais too.

If you like I can make a copy and send it to you. It's a Dutch dictionary of names and a few pages are missing (dogs, you know ), but there are still lots of names you can use, i think.

Just send me your address etc, but it will after Songkran probably.

nienke

Gilligans island:

Gilligan

Skipper

Ginger

Professor

Maryanne

The Andy Griffith Show:

Andy

Barney

Opie

Aunt Bee

Thelma Lou

Goober

Gomer

Floyd

Ernest T Bass

Emmet

Rafe

Charlene Darling

Leon

Theres more, just check the cast list

Well there's Snow white and her 7 seven dwarfs

Alpha, Beta , delta etc

Personally I'm a wombles fan - but those names are really difficult to remember!

Womble names

Planet names

Thai colours and of course English colours and maybe french etc.

We went through a stage of giving our dogs family names (good if in groups)(last name first same as Chinese)

So it would be Pong Pew, Pong Pan and Pong Pai

Then we all knew they were from the Pong family!!

Tinky winky, dipsy, la la, po...I'm sure I dont need to tell you which Brit kids program these names come from.

Aternatively, characters from the Austin Powers movies should raise a few eyebrows...

Dr Evil

Goldmember

Mini Me

Number Two

Basil Exposition

Fat Bastard

Felicity Shagwell

Alotta Fagina

Ivana Humpalot

Mr Bigglesworth

Mustafa

Good Luck

Moss

'Fraid I can't help on the adoption front.

lots of flower names could be used

I had a black lab that was fast as hel_l .. that we called Jaguar or Jag for short and another we called Rocket.

or how about>

klown

wabbit

chang

chompy (chang si chompuu)

woger

kayo

For you, all available free of charge!

Hugh

Pugh

Barney McGrew

Cuthbert

Dibble

Grub

(P.S. Hugh should be Pugh.... but to have two dogs called Pugh would just be silly )

Kayo, don't you need those names for the warrens of offspring you produce every year? Wabbit the 1st, Wabbit the Great, Wabbit the Merciful, Wabbit the Dufus...

How about one each from Bankgok's full name: Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit (then you can memorise it easier)

Island names: Phi Phi, Samui, Phangnan, Tao, Samet

Thai city names....

TV member names: Tiggy Suegha, Thaddy, Lao Po, Donna, Kayo, Terry, Miggy, FS, Buck, DSK, SBK, DJT -- may be especially appropriate for crossing the look/personality of the dog with the TV star. Ooooh, those would be good stories.

Puppy: I was named Kayo because I have long ears, a bobbed tail, a warped sense of humour, and I bark alot in several languages.

Not BWAIN?

I had a friend in England whose Weimeraner had 12 puppies. They were named after currencies of the world. Off the top of my head I remember guilder, rupee, riyal, dirham, dong, dollar (and cent) mark, lira, and tanner. These were all pre euro though so many will have gone. Good luck with your latest crop and sorry we can't have one we live in a flat.

L

Some terrific ideas! I just hope we don't get enough dogs to use them all The only duplicate so far is the Fawlty Tower names, I've used them. All others are originals. Thanks, guys & gals

whiskey types:

we had boxers: they all got brandy bourbon sherry rye etc

my male boxer's breeder used movies; each litter got a movie theme

our sheep got the name of the breeder with a number tagged to the end: we had sassi 1 sassi 2 sassi 3 (two a year and then traded for two more younger)

the goats get colours markings (blackie brownie etc in three languages to choose from) and personalities (silly, stupid, lazy, etc) plus duplicates of the same so lai number two became lai lai (we get to use four languages though: thai english arabic and hebrew

the kibbutz cows used to get the names of all the women on the kibbutz starting with a and working towards z (hebrew and then english names)

our donkeys that are born on site (not adoptions) get the month or day they were born (again, we get two different calendars for that one)or nearest holiday

u can go for politicians, important people, movie stars

u can add the word little or big to most names creating a new name...

biblical names in several languages (had sheep using the five old testament mothers' names)

our new adotped lhasa apso *yuck yuck but here to stay' got the thai name :foofoo !!! everyone on the kibbutz laughs at that name... its the thai equivalent of calling your dog fluffy i guess.

foods/company brands like nabisco heinz campell whatever...salt pepper sugar spice paprika etc

candy types: marshmallo, licorice, chocolada, coco,

soda pop types: cola, fanta, sprite, etc

a whole group of poodles on the kibbutz have fruit names!: kiwi, peaches, tutti (berry in hebrew), cherry, etc

how can u run out of names

our boxer has nala as does half the country since when we got her the lion king was a popular movie; also lots of bambis etc.

eeing as my earlier suggestion didn't garner much response, A mate of mine used to name his dogs after cigarette brands... benson, hedges, Ligget, Meyer, Camel, Kent, etc...

from a dictionary of names:

bambi

Thank you very much

Thank you very much for your earlier suggestions & these ones, Kayo

Deefer

As in 'D' for Dog

Always a laugh for someone when they ask you wky you called your dog deefer

works as Ceefer as well for a moggy

How about "Fukknuts"
